The game’s smaller scale, with a less expansive play area and shorter campaign, fits beautifully with the Switch’s pick up and play mantra. Most other games in the Far Cry series would likely have some downgrades in order to work properly on the Switch, but I feel Blood Dragon would be a perfect candidate for a Switch port. Sure, the handheld console is able to get The Witcher 3 working, but you’re silly if you think it’s the best way to play. Pretty much every Far Cry game from 3 onwards would likely be too big to work effectively on the Nintendo Switch. It nailed the “free roam collect-a-thon” that the series is known for, and it’s a formula that would work beautifully on the Nintendo Switch. The game used Far Cry 3’s engine as a basis for its gameplay, which many still consider to be the pinnacle of the series, myself included. Of course, we wouldn’t be here discussing Blood Dragon if it was just a funny adventure with no real meat on its bones. The man who’s played Kyle Reese in The Terminator and Dwayne Hicks in Aliens is almost the perfect comedic foil for the 80s “up to 11” world of Blood Dragon, and his deadpan delivery helped elevate the comedy and the overall game. Far Cry 3: Blood Dragonįar from being a fun but shallow collection of knowing winks and references, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon actually felt authentic in its presentation, and at least part of that is due to the inclusion of Michael Biehn as the main protagonist, Rex “Power” Colt. The only other thing it needed was someone flying off in a DeLorean and all bases would have been covered. Purple skies, neon lights and a brilliant soundtrack Blood Dragon was the ultimate nostalgia trip.
The April Fool’s joke turned real, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon was the standalone spin-off to the original FC 3, using the franchise’s familiar gameplay loop and adding the most bonkers 80s aesthetic into the mix.
However, we’re not going to let that stop us, so here we go: can Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon get ported to the Switch, please? There’s no Ape Escape Trilogy remake, the rest of the Yakuza series hasn’t been announced for the Xbox and Jimmy still hasn’t heard anything about WiLD.
If we wish for it, perhaps it’ll come true, right? So far, it hasn’t worked. Over here at Cultured Vultures, we like to write articles in order to put a certain energy out there into the universe.
